Add project management software to your Google Apps domain

Some of you might have seen our listing of GroupCamp Project in the Google Apps Marketplace. We are still working on our Gmail contextual gadgets and Google Docs integration but you can already add GroupCamp Project to your Google Apps domain. Please read our detailed FAQ on the installation process here.

What is the Google Apps Marketplace, what about project management software?

The Google Apps Marketplace allows you to add web-based software from providers such as GroupCamp to your Google Apps domain. Those software are listed based on specific categories such as project management or Customer Relationship Management (CRM). The unique benefit is that the Google Apps features are exposed to third-party software providers via the Google Apps API. We can therefore bring unique capabilities and increased productivity to our clients who are using Google Apps.

How does it work ?

To enjoy the benefits of GroupCamp Project’s integration with Google Apps, an Administrator of your Google Apps domain has to add GroupCamp Project from the Google Apps Marketplace. The installation process is designed to go through a key step whereby the Administrator grants GroupCamp with the ability to access your Google Apps data. Once the application is intalled, all users of your domain can access GroupCamp project from within your Google universal navigation bar as shown below. They are automatically signed into their GroupCamp account.

For GroupCamp users please note that the installation process is slightly different in that it involves linking an existing GroupCamp account to a Google Apps domain (read the procedure here)
